[QUOTE="Michael Eichele, post: 132096, member: 1007"] [ QUOTE ] The 150 gr Lazerheads worth it? and how big a difference will there be in overall performance between them and a 130 gr XBT at 500Yds? Any FPS gains between them and the 3 shock? Anyone have load data for the Lazerheads in a 300 win mag? I have the Barnes number 2 manual and it shows a 150gr XBT at just shy of 3300 fps however thats with a 24 inch barrel what gains should I get with the 26 inch on the sendaro? and the Lazerhead?
